Stranger Things X MHA

Stranger Things x MHA

First off, let me say I was so happy to find many people who both love stranger things and MHA, your taste is impeccable. A minor premise for people who don't know MHA but want to understand this: MHA is a tv show where most people are born with quirks and being a Hero is considered the best status. Some people use their quirks for evil purposes and are called Villains. In order to become a Hero, you have to go to a Hero school, study and get licensed.

Students profiles:

Steve Harrington School class: 3A (Department of Heroes) Quirk: Shiny Hair. Anyone who looks at his hair gets charmed by him. He needs to take good care of his hair because the more his hair is in excellent condition, the stronger his power is. The effects aren't long-term, but enough to distract the enemy and kick their asses. When his hair is at its best, he can make people fall in love with him. Weaknesses: if his hair gets dirty, the charm can turn into disgust. His quirk is also ineffective if people don’t look at his hair. Hero costume: is equipped with a hood that protects his hair and small compartments where he stores essential hair products. He also has throwable mirrors to reflect his image from different angles in case the enemy tries to avoid his quirk.

Eddie Munson School class: 3C -> 3A (From General department to Hero department) Quirk: Storytelling. He’s able to turn everything he reads out loud into something tangible. He could potentially control people with the proper training, but he limits himself to writing about weapons/gadgets and refuses to explore his powers more. He doesn't need to be heard by someone to make his quirk work. Weaknesses: his quirk is more effective if the words are handwritten and especially by himself. If he isn’t precise enough with descriptions, his quirk produces blobs of ink. He can only write one page at a time before needing some time to recharge. Hero costume: is very dramatic and theatrical but he only needs the notebook and pens latched to his belt. He wears gloves and a face mask to protect his hands and his voice.

Nancy Wheeler Class: 2A (Heroes) Quirk: Sniping. Everything she throws always lands where she wants it to, she has to stare at the target she wants to hit until she hits it. Weaknesses: her quirk is effective only if she can keep eye contact with the target, even blinking once makes her throws/hits ineffective. She has to see clearly her target, and the more she uses her quirk the less precise she gets. Hero costume: she wears glasses that protect her eyes and help her see long-distance targets. She carries different types of weapons, her favorite being guns.

Robin Buckley Class: 2C-> 2B (from General to Hero) Quirk: Chitchat. If she talks for a long time, the enemies get in a temporary state of confusion. Depending on the tone that she uses, she can hit different senses of the opponent: obscuring the view, blocking the hearing etc. Her quirk is based on how many words she can pronounce, to get better she had to learn to speak fast to get to the right amount of words in the shortest time possible. Weaknesses: long pauses between words make her quirk ineffective. Once she starts, she has to make sure to not be interrupted. The opponent has to listen to her and understand what she’s saying: if the enemy plugs their ears or speaks another language, her power is ineffective. She decides to learn as many languages as she can for this reason. Hero costume: much like Eddie, she has to protect her voice so she wears a face mask as well, with an incorporated megaphone to make her voice audible also from a long distance. She also carries earplugs to give to her allies to protect them from her quirk.

Jonathan Byers Class: 2B (Heroes) Quirk: photo-portals. He can use photos as portals to teleport. It's effective only if the places captured in the pictures are recognizable. The pictures have to be printed and he needs to touch them to use his quirk. Weaknesses: if the pictures are blurry, his quirk might be ineffective and he could get stuck in between places (he carries a couple of pictures of his home just in case, to get unstuck). Hero costume: is pretty anonymous. He prefers comfy clothes, he's equipped with a camera, a few different lenses and a photo album with essentials he might need (photo of the police department, his house, the school etc.)

Argyle Class: 2A (Heroes) Quirk: green thumb. His thumbs and big toes are green and when they get in contact with soil, he's able to grow plants within seconds. He can grow any sort of plant as long as he knows everything about them. Weaknesses: he needs the right type of soil to make the plants grow and the right thickness for the roots. He can grow a certain amount of plants then he needs to recharge by eating food. He swears that Pizza is the most effective but there are no scientific studies to back up his claims. Hero costume: he carries a bag full of soil on his back and has big pockets where he stores plant guides, pizza slices and other plant care items.

Teachers Profiles:

Joyce Byers Homeroom teacher of: Class 2A Quirk: seeking. Using different types of clues, she's able to find anyone. She can see colored tracks invisible to anyone else's eye that she activates by being in contact with personal objects of whoever she has to find. Weaknesses: her quirk is most effective if the objects she uses have sentimental value. If there's no sentimental value, her quirk is ineffective. Hero's costume: she doesn't need much for her quirk to be able to work. She wears glasses to protect her vision and keeps her hands free to be ready to touch objects when needed.

Jim Hopper Homeroom teacher of: Class 3A Quirk: endurance. He's able to bear huge amounts of pain, channel them and use them against his opponents. Having to deal and handle pain all his life, has affected his character, making him closed off to most people. Weaknesses: despite being able to endure a lot, he isn't invincible. Too much pain all at once could have permanent effects on his mental and physical well-being. Hero costume: he's equipped with an instrument that detects the levels of pain he's storing and alerts him when he's close to his limit.

Murray Bauman Homeroom teacher of: Class 2B Quirk: truth-telling. He's able to detect lies and, if he talks enough with his listener, he can get to the truth without being explicitly told what it is. He uses his quirk to make/brake up couples. Students call it "getting murrayed". Weaknesses: his quirk becomes imprecise if he isn't able to talk with the person involved but has to listen to recordings, calls etc. although detecting the lie is easy for him, finding the truth requires more time and a bit of intuition, so his words can't be trusted all the time.

I'd love to hide more but I'm afraid this post is long already. I'm curious to know what everyone thinks!! I have a Steddie dynamic in mind (obviously) but it didn't fit with everything else here. I didn't include the party because they would get to school once everyone else graduates. I'm tagging people who showed interest into this crossover in my other post, I hope I'm not bothering you by tagging you here (if I am, please forgive me): @isapolvorita @legitcookie @flxurishing @ledleaf @symbioticsimplicity @stringischeese @likezoinxman @amoris-no-smut @gendersnatcher

Me, every time I reread a fic that I love:

it’s hard for me to put into words how much mob psycho 100 has influenced my life for the better :’) I’m really glad it exists.

It just occurred to me that Steve goes on a spiel about him crawling backwards as a baby and Robin goes on to say how it took her longer to learn to walk than most babies. They really are soulmates

It happens after a visit at the Mayfield trailer. Eddie comes up with a wonderful plan to prank Steve: He’ll announce that he’s going back to his trailer but actually sneak and hide in the back seat of Steve’s BMW - he had stolen the keys earlier and secretly unlocked it.

So, when he sees Steve starting to wrap things up so the kids can spend time together, Eddie makes the announcement that he’s leaving, and gives Max a squeeze on the shoulder on the way out. He’s giddy with excitement as he climbs into the backseat and hunches down. He holds his breath after he hears Steve yell at everyone to take care from the front of the trailer.

The car door opens and closes, and Eddie waits a moment before he jumps out, letting Steve really settle into the comfort of his car. Instead, Steve mumbles under his breath, “Okay, Harrington, hold it together. Kids are watching.”

Eddie hears him start the car and feels him reversing back then taking off quickly. There’s a click and then a cassette starts playing which Steve starts singing along to. It would be endearing if his voice wasn’t so tight, sounding like he’s struggling to hold back tears.

Eddie doesn’t know what to do as he hears the first song end. Steve says to himself, “Use her as the fucking bait… and you just let it happen!” There’s a loud noise that Eddie thinks is the smack of a hand on the steering wheel.

He curls further into himself as the next song plays. It’s one of those playlist that he knows he would make fun of Steve for if he wasn’t practically choking out the lyrics. After a loud sob, there’s a deep breath and then a stern, “Steve Harrington doesn’t fucking cry. Steve Harrington doesn’t fucking-” it’s broken off with another sob.

Then the car is suddenly coming to a stop, and the car is filled with whatever pop song Steve has playing and the sounds of Steve Harrington gasping for breath as he lectures himself about not crying. It’s fucking devastating, but Eddie knows Steve would never forgive him if he revealed himself now.

“She might never fucking walk again you fucking idiot,” Steve says then there’s another loud smack. “You were supposed to take care of them,” Steve says voice cracking awfully. Eddie hand flies up to his mouth as he chokes back a sob. He doesn’t know when he started crying.

“I need air,” Steve announces suddenly with a gasp and then the car door is opening and slamming shut. Eddie takes a moment to debate his choices. He can attempt to hurry away although he didn’t pay any attention to where Steve was driving. Or he can keep hiding in the car and risk Steve finding him during the rest of his breakdown.

Eddie tries the door handle and slowly climbs out the back. He turns to find Steve standing off the side of some back road, hands on his hips, and face staring up at the sky. One hand rises up to pinch at his nose as tears fall down his red face. He looks like he’s trying as hard as he can to not let this take over him, and Eddie can hear him still lecturing himself.

Eddie can’t stand the sight. And he can’t leave. Maybe Steve will hate him forever for intruding, but Eddie can’t let him go through this alone. He lets the back door of the car shut firmly. Steve whips his head to the side, eyes wide in shock but red rimmed and filled with tears.

He reaches up and angrily wipes away the tears. “What the fuck are you doing here?” Steve asks. Eddie just slowly approaches him as if he were a wild animal. “Were you fucking hiding in my car?!” Steve yells.

Eddie’s just glad that his anger is directed at someone other than himself. “Fucking answer me, Munson!” Steve yells again, tears still streaming down his face which he wipes at again. Eddie doesn’t answer but slowly gets closer.

“Get the fuck away from me freak.” Eddie lets the insult roll off him as best as he can as he finally gets into Steve’s space. “Go away,” Steve whispers desperately. His words betray him as Steve doesn’t attempt to move back.

Eddie lifts his arms up and pulls Steve into a hug. He tenses up immediately. “It’s okay. I’ve got you,” Eddie says, and Steve finally gives in. He sobs into his neck, nearly close to hyperventilating as Eddie runs a hand through his hair. “I’ve got you, okay? I’ve got you,” Eddie repeats again and again as Steve loudly sobs.

“It-it’s my fault,” Steve says finally catching his breath, voice all twisted up in agony that makes Eddie choke out a sob.

“It’s not your fault, Steve,” Eddie says, trying to hold back his own tears.

“I could’ve stopped it. I should’ve stopped it,” Steve says weakly pounding his fist on Eddie’s chest.

Eddie’s hands comes up to intertwine his fingers in Steve’s, making him release the fist. “We all could’ve stopped it. We’re all at fault here. The weight of the world and the fate of these kids doesn’t need to fall on you. You can’t always save everyone, but you did.” Eddie feels Steve’s grip tighten on him as he continues, “She could’ve died, but she didn’t. She might be in that wheelchair for a long time, but she’s alive. Hell, she’s even back more of an attitude when I didn’t think it was possible.” Steve lightly laughs at the remark which makes Eddie’s hold on him tighten even further.

A few moments later, Steve’s breath begins to even out enough that Eddie decides he can loosen his grip on him. He takes the moment to pull Steve slightly away so he can cup his face in his hands. His eyes are swollen and there are still tears streaming down his red face. His bottom lip is quivering no matter how hard he’s trying to press his lips together. And there’s definitely snot and tears getting mixed under his nose. It’s an ugly cry, but Eddie thinks Steve looks beautiful.

“You saved me, too,” Eddie reminds Steve. “You saved us all.”

Steve’s watery eyes search Eddie’s before he’s slowly nodding, finally accepting that maybe he isn’t entirely at fault for everything that’s happened, and maybe he even caused some good.

Eddie kisses him on the forehead and pulls him back into a hug. “You can cry, too, you know. As much as you need to because I’ve got you. I’ll be here forever if you need me to be,” Eddie says softly.

“Promise?” Steve says quietly.

“Promise,” Eddie says, tugging Steve closer on the side of the road, feeling the dampness on his shirt grow as Steve finally lets go.

Fanart of @coolestjoy30 fanfic “It Takes Two to Survive”(it’s a really amazing story and it’s seriously one of my favorites!!!) This take place when Steve and Robin were kidnapped by Brenner and kept in the lab.
